Business equipment
Identify the machine, tool or system the business needs to buy. Include delivery and setup so the request reflects the cost of putting it into use.
Business financing referrals · Local businesses
A useful funding request identifies a purchase or an operating expense, not just a broad ambition. Describe what your local business needs, the cost involved and when payment is due.



Before you begin
Prepare the business profile and the purpose of the request so the information stays consistent.


Local businesses · funding preparation
Use the business’s current trading record as the starting point. Expected growth can explain a plan, but it should remain distinct from sales already made or payments received.
Possible uses
Identify the machine, tool or system the business needs to buy. Include delivery and setup so the request reflects the cost of putting it into use.
Connect a stock order to the products you sell and the period in which you expect to sell them. Separate confirmed supplier prices from preliminary estimates.
List the bills that fall due before expected customer receipts. Define the period covered so the request has a clear purpose and end point.
How it works
State what the funds would pay for and when that payment is expected.
Answer the form’s questions about the operation and provide accurate owner contact details.
Review the disclosures and the information entered, then verify your mobile number before sending it.
A few things to know
This service is compensated by funding partners for referrals and the sale of submitted application details. We may share a request with up to five partners who can contact you; our compensation is independent of funding and we charge no application fee.
A referral is not a promise that a partner will make an offer. The business must meet that provider’s requirements before financing can be agreed.
A funding partner may ask for records or clarification before making a decision. The requested date should therefore be treated as part of the application, not a promise.
A received SMS code does not replace the need to read the contact and sharing disclosures. Review those conditions before completing the submission.
